2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Brakes Problems

“1. Brake Failure: recently when my brakes stopped responding while driving.The pedal went all the way to the floor, and I barely managed to stop the car. 2. Knocking sound when braking: I started to notice a clunking/knocking sound that would occur when braking and just about coming to a stop.”

““While stopped at a red light my 2024 Hyundai IONIQ 5, the car moved forward slowly the brake pedal became completely unresponsive and would not slow or stop the vehicle. I had to turn off the engine to bring the car to a stop. This is a complete brake system failure on a vehicle with only approximately 10,000 miles that was purchased new on September 28, 2024. This is a critical safety defect that put myself and others at serious risk.””

Had to turn into a parked vehicle to keep from rolling down steep grade and potentially off a substantial cliff. Happened today and dealership said that it may be because the battery for the brake had not received a charge from the main battery. Very dangerous and never disclosed. If I had not taken evasive action I could have easily been killed. …”

“I received this car new on 9/2/2024. I was driving at the freeway speed of traffic on 9/5/2024 when there was a sudden alarm and warning lights flashing on the dashboard with a message that said “Stop vehicle and check brake system.” At this same time, the brakes stopped functioning normally, and I had to use extreme pressure with my foot pressing down on the brake pedal all the way to the floor to have the car slow down even marginally. All of this happened with traffic in front, behind, and on both sides of me going 65 mph! …”
